Edge is a gaming magazine. MS has flat out said that they did not architect the XBone to have high performance in games. They wanted to strike off on this path of a multi-entertainment console. Why should a gaming magazine try to hide under the auspice of "fairness" when there's two other consoles out there that are directly targeted towards the same demographic as the magazine?

I see why XBox fans are probably pretty mad about this, but they can't bake their cake and eat it, too. The PS4 is clearly the better gaming machine and it is coming in at a much better pricepoint. If there were "Multi-entertainment home theater device" magazines out there, then I would imagine there would be a similar cover to the same effect for the XBone. So, I don't think this cover shows some unfair judgement or bias against the new XBox so much as it reflects the attitude of the core gamer towards the machine.

War is fought for silence. For, it is with silence, you will know that war has ended.
